NOTES:
Note #1: Fingerpicking is done with the thumb and index finger only (like Cat Stevens).
Note #2: Steve plays E5 in the verses (as you can see when watching his 1971 BBC Theatre Concert).
However, you can also use Emaj7 as alternative.
Note #3: The instrumental riff is the main riff just in G.
